Influence of beam crosssection, loading arrangement and aggregate type on shear strength

This paper describes 14 tests on simply supported and continuous reinforced concrete beams which were designed to investigate the influences of aggregate type, loading arrangement and shear reinforcement ratio on shear strength. The beams were rectangular ...

Strength of Anode-Supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

Antonin Faes, Andreas Kaiser

Nickel oxide and yttria doped zirconia composite strength is crucial for anode-supported solid oxide fuel cells, especially during transient operation, but also for the initial stacking process, where cell curvature after sintering can cause problems. This ...

Nanomechanical Membrane-type Surface Stress Sensor

Terunobu Akiyama, Sebastian Gautsch, Peter Vettiger

Nanomechanical cantilever sensors have been emerging as a key device for real-time and label-free detection of various analytes ranging from gaseous to biological molecules. The major sensing principle is based on the analyte-induced surface stress, which ...

Interaction between Bond and Deviation Forces in Spalling Failures of Arch-Shaped Members without Transverse Reinforcement

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Sylvain Plumey

This paper investigates the structural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) arch-shaped members without transverse reinforcement subjected to bending. Such members have typical applications in tunnels, cut-and-cover structures, shells, vaults, ducts, silos ...

Tiling Freeform Shapes with Straight Panels: Algorithmic Methods

Bailin Deng

This paper shows design studies with bent panels which are originally rectangular or at least approximately rectangular. Based on recent results obtained in the geometry processing community, we algorithmically approach the questions of an exact rectangula ...

Influence of a Prestressing Eccentricity on the Punching Shear Strength of Post-Tensioned Slab Bridges

Aurelio Muttoni, Thibault Clément

A large number of medium and small span bridges in Switzerland and in other countries are slab bridges, often prestressed, multi-span and supported by columns. Punching in such structures is typically governing at failure. So far, the knowledge of the infl ...

Statistical Analysis of Structural Glass Strength

Sinan Korkmaz, Maria Lindqvist

In contrast to most other building materials the strength of glass is not a material parameter, but rather a combination of the material treatment and the load position effects. Structural glass elements are produced with heat treatment when compressive re ...
